[Macrostress claudication. Isolated juvenile arteriosclerosis in a lower limb of a young athlete].
Juvenile peripheral atherosclerosis is seldom reported in healthy men younger than 30 years. A case report describes a healthy young man in whom claudication developed due to an isolated vascular lesion in the superficial femoral artery documented by arteriography. The symptoms, diffential diagnosis and treatment are discussed.
